Your First Visit

On your first visit, plan to be at Fox Chase for two to four hours. At this time, you will meet with your care team. The team will review your health records and provide a plan of care that’s right for you. They will also answer all of your questions about your diagnosis and treatment options.

We suggest you bring a family member or friend with you to this visit. It is helpful for another person to hear your doctor’s plan for treatment and offer you support. Your support person can also help make sure your questions get fully answered.
